Original Story: "Be Vigilant." That's all Marvel's new teaser for the new status quo sweeping the Marvel Universe, Inhumanity, says, but it carries quite a few implications.

The image itself and the word "Vigilant" carry a heavy connotation of something bad coming. You're not typically vigilant for large gifts of money or roses, you're vigilant for threats.

Of course, if there was any doubt whether or not Marvel Comics is positioning Inhumans as the new "mutants" of the Marvel Universe, this image should erase that. Whether it is, as has been speculated, to give them their own "mutants" for the Marvel Cinematic Universe while Fox retains the rights to the originals, or simply because this is where the story has taken them, remains to be seen.

Will these new Inhumans wind up joining the cause of Mutants in protecting a world that hates and fears them? Will they be more readily accepted, or ostracized completely? Find out starting in December (though some of the Infinity tie-ins have already broached the subject), as Inhumanity takes over the Marvel Universe.
